12 awesome Sindhi food combinations that you must try

When it comes to food, some matches are made in heaven! Here are some of the most delicious Sindhi food combinations that you must try if you really want to taste the true flavors of Sindhi cuisine. Ranging from humble dal rice to ‘inspired’ macaroni curry, from soul soothing Kadhi -rice to signature Saibhaji pulav, here is an exhaustive, lip-smacking list of all the favorite meal combinations of Sindhi people. Enjoy!

Before I forget, please take a note that eating a Sindhi papad and some pickle with many of the meals mentioned here, will give you that authentic ‘Sindhi maani‘ (meal) feel !

1) Dal- Pakwan: Nutty, mushy dal scooped with crispy crunchy pakwan, with a dash of mint coriander chutney is a hands down winner when it comes to the most popular signature Sindhi breakfast.

2) Koki-Papad: Almost a staple Sindhi breakfast, thick spiced up roti called Koki is often had with papad. Grab some hot chai or chilled yogurt and you will end up eating a quick fix, filling and most satisfying breakfast. If you are lucky enough, you can fetch some spicy dal moongfrom the nearby thela.

Healthy and wholesome, this delicious Sindhi style spinach subzi tastes awesome with rice cooked with caramelized onions. The sinful, crispy double fried arbi adds an element of crunchiness. Have it with some traditional Sindhi pickle and the I bet you will crave for this kind of meal again and again!

7) Tidali Dal- Dodo: Another healthy combination where the simple nutty flavors of three kind of lentils compliment well with patted sorghum roti. A rustic meal that is best enjoyed with some raw onions and side dish of your choice.

9) Tayri-Vangan patata:This sweetened rice flavored with fennel seeds, Kopra and black raisins is a sacred food for Sindhis. Served as prasad on all auspicious occasions, this tayri /tairi tastes great with Vangan patata (Brinjal and Potato curry).

Hello Jatin ji,
I am trying to compile a list of all possible places where one can find Sindhi food, be it streets,shops or large and small eateries. Do check it here:http://sindhirasoi.com/eat-outs/
I wish someone from Delhi can let us know if there are any Sindhi food joints there.

Great work and detailing.. Maybe missed out on mitho lolo and sarhain ji bhaji… And of course, all the yummy non- veg options: gosht dabroti, seyal machhi, pava, chops… Would love it if you could share some lost non- veg recipes..

Hello Kavita Ji,
Is sarhain same as drumstick flowers? I think I have heard this word before but can’t recollect it.
Also since this blog is only about veg recipes, I can’t share list of non veg recipes here. But you can check my another blog http://recipeonclick.com,where I try to share Nonveg Sindhi recipes.
